Has anyone been in this situation?
The agency says they have sent letters and tried calling with no reply?
I’ve not been paid this year!
A few posters on this forum are also paid care workers … juggling work with caring.
One of those may provide an insight from their own experiences as paid care workers.
If an employer is withholding wages , usually one for that employee’s trade union to handle ?
If no trade union , even a claim through the courts … having first sought expert advice ?
Are you usually paid by the agency and they are waiting for payment from the caree, or does the caree pay you direct?
It’s a direct setup. I’m supposed to deal with paying her NI and I need to pay Tax and NI?
Before it was all handled by an agency, however she wasn’t happy at that agency so I changed it for her to one she wanted now still not happy with this setup.
Either we change the package from standard to advanced payroll or i take it to the courts.

Are you the employer ?
If so , expert advice is recommend … Employment law … nobody on this forum is an acknowledged expert on that.
Talk to ACAS. It all sounds very iffy to me!
im an employee
If you are the employee , your employer deducts whatever from your pay … and then pays said monies over to the TaxMan.
I assume no problem with the pension element ?
Paid care workers … this is a forum for family carers.
